Hi all, I tried posting this on the forums but had no luck. I was wondering if anyone here could give me some advice.
My question is about installing Natty, given that i have had kernel problems in Maverick. My problem is that i have not been able to get any of the kernels working for Maverick since 2.6.35-22. All of -23 - -28 have resulted in my system randomly freezing up, with me not being able to find anything in the file logs with which to report a bug (see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1633453 & http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1683195). I have managed to run 11.04 off a live USB without a problem, but i am not sure if that means the kernel problems are resolved. For example, i haven't meddled with my system as much when using the live USB so i am not sure if some conflict might be happening with something i have yet to try on 11.04. So, some questions: 1. Are the problems i am having with the more recent kernels in Maverick likely to have an impact in Natty? 2. If i install Natty and have problems, would i be able to install the old 2.6.35-22 kernel and run Natty off that? 3. If 'no' to 2.; if i install Natty and have problems and thus seek to reinstall Maverick, would i be able to do so off the old kernel, or will my reinstall of Maverick mean that i only get the 2.6.35-28 kernel? If anyone can help me out on this, or point me to a site with relevant information, that would be great.
